Agree. Would normally enjoy the schadenfreude of an Iowa collapse. But will take a lot for cyclones to clean up from that ******** in Iowa city
It literally won't take much at all for ISU to get right and hasn't.
If they played the same way their last two games they might have lost or at least been close at the end.
This is weird seeing folks think the Iowa game=any other game or that one game is supposed to be what that team just 'is'.
It’s not weird. Stupid people have been on message boards since their inception.
By his thought process, unless you go undefeated, then you can’t revel in any team’s loss that you play. Or you know, maybe people revel any time your rival loses because that’s what college sports is about in a big way. Weird.
Haha, hahahahaha, ha...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
It's not even that, it's just that every team goes through weird games or lulls and even if they're perceived to be playing well, it can all shift quickly.
If teams just 'played to their potential' I guess we can just forgot that March Madness thingy.
Eastern Illinois pulled off the biggest college basketball upset by point spread in the modern era Wednesday, knocking off Iowa 92-83 on the road as a 31.5-point underdog, according to Caesars Sportsbook.

So tired of seeing them lose to teams they are better than. Fran only played eight players? What's wrong with him? And no Connor yesterday? He would have made the difference. 
I'm sure it felt like an open door scrimmage with zero atmosphere, not that they have an atmosphere outside of the ISU game. Giving up 55 second half pts to that team is beyond bad.

I can see some scenarios where if it was going badly it was probably better he wasn't on the floor.
You know the guy the Illinois coach wants backing him up in a Pizza Hut parking lot fistfest.
With two key veterans on the sidelines in Kris Murray (left foot) and Connor McCaffery (left hand), the proven options for Iowa to restore order had dwindled.So tired of seeing them lose to teams they are better than.

Was Connor going to shove his way through their huddle after EIU got the lead?
He's seen a dunk fest or two.
Nine (9!) dunks conceded in the second half seems to this guy (who didn't watch the game) as a team that had given up early.
